Only the dyno can tell the truth!

I'm a bit confused here. So you have a 95" already. What are you boring the jugs out to?

I think that 95" is the biggest you can go without splitting the cases. There is a 98" that can be done but that's not Harley parts.

I would venture to guess they are honing those jugs to fit oversized rings,then grinding and handfitting the rings to get a tight end gap to make better compression.

With the 211's a guy is gonna need all they can muster up!
